Submitting Patches
|
||||||
|
------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you'd like to propose a patch for changes to GNU make, you should create a
|
||||||
|
patch with your changes. If you're making your changes in a Git workspace you
|
||||||
|
can run "git format-patch" to create a patch file. If not, you can use the
|
||||||
|
patch(1) utility.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once you have a patch you can submit it in any of these ways:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Create a bug on Savannah and add the patch as an attachment:
|
||||||
|
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=make&func=additem
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Send the patch via email to <bug-make@gnu.org>: be sure to add it as an
|
||||||
|
attachment to avoid interference by email processors.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Be aware that all non-trivial changes proposed for GNU make require FSF
|
||||||
|
copyright paperwork to be completed before they can be accepted. Contact
|
||||||
|
<bug-make@gnu.org> for help.
